Anantnag: A team of ED officials with security personnel on Thursday raided the house of Hurriyat leader Qazi Ahmed Yasir in Anantnag. More details are awaited.
Last month, the district administration of Anantnag demolished an illegal shopping complex of Yasir. Qazi Ahmed Yasir is a Kashmiri political leader. He is the former Mirwaiz of South Kashmir and a renowned scholar.
He was suspended from the post of Mirwaiz in 2018 after a purported video surfaced showing him in an obscene act with a woman. However, the case is being investigated by a body of socio, political, legal and religious activists from the Kashmir valley. Since 2018 he has been in jail. (with ANI inputs)
